More Star Trek (dur), I liked it, but then I like a)Star Trek and b)fanfic so published Star Trek fanfic is something I like. And as mentioned previously I think Duane writes well.
the first 3 books of Cherryh's Morgaine series.
Meh. Which is :-( other Cherryh books I have read I really liked. I dunno why I was all 'meh' about these but I was. Didn't catch me in the right mood I guess.
Crystal Nights and other stories by Greg Egan
More Greg Egan Short Stories, and if you liked his previous work I guess you'll like these. I think they require less background knowledge than many of his other stories, but I suspect that a sciency frame of mind helps (although one of them is nothing to do with science at all) he's taken on some more ethical questions rather than merely exploring technical possibilities. I had only read one of these previously (the Quantum Football one, it's on his website).
